Sacred Lessons: Teaching My Father How to Love

On this episode I had a wonderful conversation that I can hardly put into words. I would like to introduce you to visionary strategist, musician, an influential social justice change maker, Mike de la Rocha. Recognized as one of GOOD Magazine’s 100 people changing the world, Mike is a recipient of the Peace & Freedom Award, and a Shorty Social Good Award for Social Justice. His first book, Sacred Lessons: Teaching My Father How to Love (Simon and Schuster) is now available, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5WKQDSP?... The book explores how inherited definitions of manhood profoundly impacted Mike's ability to connect with his father, his family, and ultimately himself, inviting readers on a transformative journey of self-discovery, forgiveness, and love. It delves into the struggle men face in connecting with themselves and others, offering tools for personal growth and ways to build meaningful and authentic relationships in their lives. Mike is a humble, kind yet incredibly impressive individual who has performed and spoken on influential stages like SXSW, TEDx, NPR, and Amnesty International, while also touring globally across Europe, Africa, and North America. Sharing the stage with artists like Ben Harper, Foster the People, and Jon Batiste, Mike continues to bridge music and social impact on a global scale. His global work harnessing art and music for justice has taken him across four continents, collaborating with icons Harry Belafonte, Dolores Huerta, and John Legend.
